Abstract (en)

An adaptation hardware accelerator comprises a calculation unit configured to receive a plurality of inputs at one or more predefined time intervals, wherein each time interval corresponds to a calculation iteration, the plurality of inputs being associated with a plurality of adaptive filters each having a plurality of taps, and determine a correlation data and a cross-correlation data based thereon for a given calculation iteration. The correlation data comprises a correlation matrix comprising a plurality of sub-matrices, wherein determining the correlation matrix comprises determining only the submatrices in an upper triangular portion and a diagonal portion of the correlation matrix. Further, the adaptation hardware accelerator comprises an adaptation core unit configured to determine a plurality of adaptive weights associated with the plurality of adaptive filters, respectively, based on an optimized RLS based adaptive algorithm, by utilizing the correlation data and the cross correlation data. In addition, the hardware accelerator unit comprises a convergence detector unit configured to determine a convergence parameter; and a controller configured to generate an iteration signal for each of the predefined time intervals based on the convergence parameter. The iteration signal communicates to the calculation unit and the adaptation core unit to continue with a next calculation iteration or to conclude, wherein the conclusion indicates a determination of a final value of the plurality of the adaptive weights by the adaptation core unit.
